HP Mobile Remote Control (ExpressCard version) component functions
The infrared lens on the remote control links the remote control to the computer. The link requires a
line-of-sight path between the infrared lens on the remote control and the infrared lens on the
computer.
Things to remember:
●
The HP Mobile Remote Control operates within Microsoft® Windows®, QuickPlay (select
computer models only), and InterVideo Home Theater software (select computer models only).
Each button responds according to which application is active.
NOTE Refer to the InterVideo Home Theater on-screen help for remote control
information.
NOTE For information on using QuickPlay, refer to the QuickPlay User Guide .
Depending on your computer model, the QuickPlay User Guide is available either on CD
or through the Help and Support Center.
●
Some remote control buttons perform the same functions as computer buttons. For example,
the DVD button on the remote control and the DVD button on the computer have the same
functions and can be used interchangeably.
●
Some remote control buttons perform the same functions as computer hotkeys. Refer to the
computer user guide for information on supported hotkeys.
●
Other remote control buttons provide functions that are not duplicated by computer buttons or
preset key combinations.
Troubleshooting the remote control
Refer to the following table for help in troubleshooting remote control problems.

the computer. A PC Card remote control must be inserted into the
PC Card slot and an ExpressCard remote control must be inserted
into the ExpressCard slot.

from the slot. Depending on your remote control model, refer to the removal
instructions in either "
